Will You Still Drink Anheuser-Busch's Beer?

Thursday July 17, 2008

It's no news that St. Louisans (and much of the country) are experiencing a sense of loss after this week's announcement that Belgian-based InBev will be the new owners of Anheuser-Busch. Emotions range from nostalgic acceptance to angst and anger. I've heard many people comment that they'll stop drinking AB products. I'm skeptical that there will be a massive drop in sales, but I am curious if regular Bud and Bud Light drinkers will feel bitter enough to begin buying other brands. Where do you stand? Will an AB product still be your beer of choice, or will you switch brands?
